That is a great NSV Mr.Yoda. Hypertension can be a real problem. I am hoping to be off my BP meds pretty quick as well. If my damn life would cooperate and quit being so stressful.

I am now on people food again and (as the loverboy song says) LOVIN' EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!

Strange the things you miss when you can only mash or puree things...

- toast puree... Looked too much like baby poop!

- Chinese food in the blender ... the blender came on a hour later.... all by itself!!!

- Fries in the blender... just wrong!

- pizza puree... it looked like a frog was in there!

- chicken in the blender... pre-chewed for your enjoyment!

- Steak puree... Wrong on SO MANY levels!

But now... I can just Chew Chew Chew and enjoy people Food Food Food!

nooooooooo, not meeeee!!!

I'm referring to the movie we saw last night. We both reallllly liked it. It was HILARIOUS and very well done. I also liked the several references to Canada in the film. Several scenes had our flag in it, too.

It reminded me of "Something About Mary" in it's humour.....I highly recommend it.

Next on our list is "Mr Brooks" and the upcoming "Oceans 13".

I can't WAIT for the one entitled "Chuck and Larry"....I nearly peed my pants laffin' during the previews!!!

Mr. Yoda

Congrats on your NSV. That should be a good inspiration for many.

You and I are only one day apart on band dates so I can feel your joy with people food instead of baby food. Now I know why babies throw it on the floor or throw it up so often.:girl_hug:

All the best to you. When is your first fill?

Hi Mr Yoda!

I have been kinda watching ur progress as you are about a month ahead of me. You doing awesome! 28 lbs...cant wait!

Anyhoo...I saw you put some recipies on pureed stage. I coped them both down. Do you have any more? I am sooo dreading this stage.

Your recipes didnt sound half bad so I want to have a few choices.

Got anything else to make this stage something I can handle?

[Mr. Yoda 0]

Thanks... but the people food stage is kinda getting it back on... I have no real restriction yet so I am creeping back... On the other hand, I am visiting all my old haunts for the fabled LAST MEAL before my fill... after the 18th I will be a good boy finally and get serious about loosing!

Lets see...

Mexican Chipless Nachos...

1/4 cup refried Beans

2 Tbs Salsa

2 Tbs Grated cheese

1Tbs Sour cream

spread beans and salsa in a bowl and nuke until hot (covered or there will be a mess to clean up)... sprinkle with cheese and nuke (covered) for about 20 to 30 seconds to melt it... garnish with sour cream (if you like you can add the green stuff as well about 1 Tbs guacamoli(sp?))

or

Inside Out Omlette

1/4 cup scrambled eggs

2 Tbs Grated cheese

2 Tbs Ground Ham (or other meats ground up)

Cook scrambled eggs and place loosy on plate... mix in meat and Cheese... (you may want to nuke for a couple seconds to melt and warm thru) salt and pepper to taste...also good to have with mashed potatoes as a side...

Thats all I can think of at the moment... if any more arise I will be sure to add them here...

Now keep it mind you talking to a girl that has lived with drive thru foods and restaurants for years....

What excatly is refried Beans? I take it is not just like pork and beans?

lol..ok im laughing even writing that!
